We would like schools to encourage children to get involved by creating a “Hungry for History’ committee of students of all ages to work together and discuss Hungry for History ideas, commemorative events, outdoor classrooms, competitions etc. If possible, we would like schools to set up activities that could link in the local area or their partner schools to inform them of what is happening.

Through discussion and collaboration, we hope these committees will develop a series of skill sets and allow them to leave their own lasting legacy from the commemorations.
